Getting medicine to
patients faster.

Our mission is to develop the next generation of treatments that change the way medicine works today. In the process, we’ve reduced the wait between the first tested human dose to public medicine launch from eleven years to six.

Clinical trials contribute to the advancement of medicine

OUR HISTORY

Fighting for health for

six generations

Founder Colonel Eli Lilly combined scientific rigour, passion for discovery, and caring for the community. From the first company to print ingredients on the label to the first company to make life-saving medicine accessible regardless of insurance status, Lilly continues to put people at the centre of the medicine we make.
